Chapter 460: Chasing the Enemy for a Thousand Miles (1)
I thought that there would inevitably be another fight outside the camp, but I didn't expect it to be empty, except for a few black-clothed swordsmen who came with Du Du, there was not a single shadow of the enemy at all.
I wondered, but I faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and the light of a fire in the distance, which was wandering towards the east.
Lu Yanqing observed for a moment and said, "During the day, the eldest grandson Wuji was still aggressive and wanted to fight to the death with His Majesty, why did he withdraw all of them now?" ”
I took a closer look, and as Lu Yanqing said, after the camp of the eldest grandson Wuji was lit, the blazing fire reflected very brightly not far away, not far from their grain and grass, if they didn't pull it, someone would definitely save it, but now they didn't even hear the slightest movement.
The man in black said: "I listened to what the owner of the village said, Mr. Zhang Wensu originally came with the soldiers of Hebei, but he separated from the owner of the village on the way, and now the enemy is withdrawing, will it be because of Mr. Zhang's ......?"
I looked at Du Kill who fell in Zimin's arms, and then looked at the eldest grandson Wuji in the distance, and said to Lu Yanqing: "Are you interested in chasing them?" ”
Lu Yanqing did not hesitate, only nodded.
I said to Zi Min: "Sister Du Kill has suffered a lot this time, and she is injured, so you will take her back to the Seven Kills Villa." As he spoke, he handed Li Xuanba's body to the man in black, "Please go to Du Kangju's pianist and tell her about it...... Li Xuanba handed it over to her, and she would take care of the rest. ”
Dugu Xiude came to us at this time with the people of the Seven Immortals Villa, and when he saw that we were safe and sound, he arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, they have suddenly withdrawn their troops. ”
I said, "Withdraw, let's withdraw, you and Zimin will go back for the time being." After speaking, he walked behind Dugu Xiude, led two fast horses, and handed the reins of one of them to Lu Yanqing, "Do you want to go?" ”
Lu Yanqing took the reins, and without saying a word, he turned over and got on the horse.
Dugu Xiude stood in front of me and said, "Your Majesty ......"
I said, "You can help Zimin take care of the affairs of the Seven Don't Kill Villa." ”
Hearing this, Zi Min said, "Big brother, keep your sword." ”
I took the sword and said to Zimin: "If I go today, I will never let go of the eldest grandson Wuji." As he spoke, he also stepped on the saddle and said to Lu Yanqing: "Go!" ”
The two horses flew out like arrows off the string.
Lu Yanqing said to me on the horse: "I don't think we can catch up." ”
I said, "Then why are you coming along?" ”
Lu Yanqing said: "I'm curious, I want to give it a try." ”
I said aloud, "I can catch up!" ”
After galloping for about a moment, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps and horses' hooves in front of him, but it was Qin Qiong and Cheng Zhijie's pursuers chasing behind.
Lu Yanqing and I sped up and rushed to the front of the team, Qin Qiong and Cheng Zhijie saw us coming, and hurriedly wanted to salute, but I only pointed to their horses and said, "No need to be polite, I'll just exchange two horses with you." ”
When Qin Qiong heard this, she turned over and dismounted, and I jumped lightly on the horse and landed on the saddle of Qin Qiong's mount, and Lu Yanqing also changed Cheng Zhijie's horse in the same way.
I turned back to Qin Cheng and the others: "You just have to chase after it, you don't have to catch up, just slow down while chasing, and let them take a breather." ”
Qin Qiong said: "Your Majesty and this son went alone, just afraid of danger. ”
I shook my head and said, "No." ”
As he spoke, he shook the horse's head and said to Lu Yanqing: "Follow me!" ”
After changing horses, the footsteps were a little faster, and I took a detour to the left, gradually leaving Qin Qiong and Cheng Zhijie's pursuers, and Lu Yanqing was still following behind me.
After leaving a long distance, I said to Lu Yanqing beside me while urging the horse forward: "I don't understand one thing very well, and I want to ask Lu Gongzi." ”
Lu Yanqing smiled when he heard this: "Your Majesty, please ask." ”
I said, "You were not keen on these things before, and you could be satisfied with wine, but now you are frequently involved in dangers, and if you lose your life in vain, will you not lose a great loss?" ”
Lu Yanqing sneered: "People live for a time, they can't always be drunk and dream of death, I just think that the previous life was too boring, so I also want to see new things, as for whether it is a loss or not, let's talk about it later." ”
I smiled and said, "I actually don't understand, you are a famous family after the Fan Yang Lu clan, why do you have to run out to join in the fun?" ”
Lu Yanqing said: "Your Majesty has already asked before, why do you want to ask?" ”
I said, "I'm just wondering, how did Li Xuanba die?" ”
Lu Yanqing's expression moved slightly, and said, "Why did you come to ask me?" ”
I said, "Because when he died, you were by his side." ”
Lu Yanqing said: "If Your Majesty doubts me, why did you bring me here?" ”
I said, "Actually, I don't know why, I don't think you will have any ill intentions towards me. It's just that Li Xuanba's death seems to be related to you. ”
Lu Yanqing said: "If Your Majesty is ......"
Before he finished speaking, a chill came in front of him, and something seemed to glow in the dark.
Lu Yanqing said: "There are archers in ambush!" ”
I realized this, too, but after the arrows that flew were knocked down by me, no more arrows flew at me.
Lu Yanqing said: "Your Majesty will go first, and I will come later!" ”
I said, "What do you want to do?" ”
Lu Yanqing didn't answer, but flew off the horse's back in the direction where the arrow was flying and jumped towards the side of the path.
Hearing a wail among the grass, Lu Yanqing went and returned, landed on the horse's back and continued to gallop forward.
I said, "Who are they?" ”
Lu Yanqing said: "These people probably saw the chaos outside Chang'an City and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, but they were not marchers. ”
As he spoke, he had chased another arrow, but I could hear his breath rise and fall, and it seemed that he was struggling.
The retreat of the army of the eldest grandson Wuji was not fast, they retreated along the main road, and I took a shortcut with Lu Yanqing, so I chased for about half an hour, and I saw their Chinese army in the distance.
Lu Yanqing looked in the direction of my finger and said with a smile: "Although I came with Your Majesty, I don't know why Your Majesty has to chase after me, if it is to kill the eldest grandson Wuji, it seems that it can't be done, they retreated in such a hurry, it must be something happened in Luoyang, and when Your Majesty captures Luoyang, it will not be too late to kill him." ”
I said: "I still can't understand why Yu Wenxin, who is in Jinyang, will trap Yuanji in injustice, but because of his instigation, Yu Wenxin took the empty responsibility. Yuanji has been unhappy about this matter, so I naturally want to take this breath for him. ”
Lu Yanqing listened to my words, but was silent for a long time before saying: "If there is a brother, if Your Majesty, Li Xuanba is dead, and there must be no regrets." ”
When he mentioned Li Xuanba, it seemed very abrupt, but my mind was now only on the eldest grandson Wuji, so he said: "Actually, I didn't want to kill him directly, it would be best if I could capture him alive." ”
